"We needed to get out of there. They got out of the way." Duke eased down his speed, letting the speeder and both of them catch a break and finally breathe. One moment they were fighting an assassin, the next it was possible the police force was after him or both of them. He followed Trys directions and drove normally to not draw any suspicion onto them. The entire time Duke had his gaze out the window and scanning for any police vehicles, making sure they weren't be followed or simply go right into a trap.
When they took the right and approached the tunnel, it was two lanes and he got in the left one and attempted to avoid as much traffic as possible. Duke kept his gaze forward, the lights installed in the tunnel constantly breaks in between them and lighting up the interior of the speeder for a brief moment before disappearing and then lighting them up once more. It was relatively peaceful for a few moments but then the tunnel started to change color as red and blue reflected off the walls. Duke glanced into his rearview mirror and could see a single cop car that was barreling down their lane at full speed.
He shifted the speeder over into the next lane, hoping with everything he would just continue on. His blaster out of nowhere was in one of his hands, it resting between his legs in case it came to that. Duke continued glancing in the side mirror, "Please keep going, keep going." He wasn't a cop killer and he never wanted to be one but his back would be up against the wall if they got pulled over. When the cop was about to pass them, his grip on the blaster tightened as he turned his head straight so they couldn't get a clean look at him. Thankfully, they flew right past the two and he out a massive sigh of relief.
He stowed away the blaster and wiped his forehead, wanting to just get out of the tunnel and reach where they were going. Following Trys directions a little longer, they finally arrived at a dingy house that was somewhat bigger than Duke's old apartment but not much. There were in a sort of poor neighborhood but not completely ran by gangs as life still progressed there. "We're here." It was another safe house that hadn't been burned yet and he hoped that by hiding under the police noses they wouldn't find them as easily.
